Guerilla Grilled Cheese

Total Time: 10 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 2
  • 4 teaspoons butter
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil
  • 4 slices american cheese (must be yellow)
  • 4 slices bread (whole wheat prefered)
  • pureed carrot, and
  • sweet potato

Recipe

  • 1 melt 1 tsp of butter in a small skillet over medium low heat. add 1 tsp of the olive oil.
  • 2 spread 1 tsp of the orange puree on the center of each slice of bread. do not get close to the edge -- you don't want this oozing out where your kids can see the dreaded vegetable.
  • 3 top each side of the bread with a slice of cheese, then make sandwiches (2 slices of bread, 2 slices of cheese, 2 tsp orange puree).
  • 4 place one sandwich into the skillet. don't press it down, you want the puree to absorb into the bread, not ooze out.
  • 5 for each bread side, add 1 more tsp of butter and 1 more tsp olive oil. brown each side of both sandwiches until crispy.
  • 6 let cool for a few moments before cutting.
  • 7 since the orange puree adds a tiny bit of sweetness to the grilled cheese, i found it helpful to sprinkle the outside of the grilled cheese sandwiches with garlic salt. use your judgement based on what your picky eater will tolerate.
